    I am opposed to approval of the new Hallman Pit in Wilmot Township on Witmer Road. We do not need another gravel pit that is disruptive to the community, poses health and environmental threats and may cause problems for the Shingeltown wells. Local citizens do not deserve to have the value of their homes driven down due to this pending pit development. We need to preserve prime agricultural farm land.

    PLEASE STOP THE PIT.

    Thank you.
